People who think like that really piss me off... PC gamers who think they're part of some so called master race because their games look a little prettier than console games.

Pretty much sums up what I was thinking. One of the reasons console gamers are starting to dislike PC gamers more and more, keep up the good work guys you're only making people not like you more


PC gamers are (to be clear, not all, just those who are extreme fans) are the most vocal yet overall insignicant portion of a AAA titles. Yes, PC centric titles like RTS, MOBA, and Valve games can do very well but for huge games like GTA, Destiny, Watchdogs, etc. PC represents a fraction of consoles.

Then there's also that whole thought process of "wait for a sale". Hell, one of the big reasons people give for switching to PC is those sales. As a publisher, I'd likely care least for PC because they're also the hardest to please. So essentially, they contribute the least but expect the most. The worse kind of customer. 

Console gamers are (to be clear, not all, just those who are extreme fans) are the most vocal yet overall insignicant portion of a AAA titles. Yes, Console centric titles from companys like , EA, and Activision can do very well but for most other games not so much. Console represents a fraction of PC's multi genre users.

Then there's also that whole thought process of "Buy Used". Hell, one of the big reasons people give for switching to Console is those used games. As a publisher, I'd likely care least for Console because they're also the hardest to please. So essentially, they buy the same game over and over but expect the most, just cos some games get massive sales. The worse kind of customer.

Anyway see how that works both ways??

And Valve isnt big?? O_o maybe not on console but on PC their games are played by millions but then i guess most console users only see things from a console prospective and its only big if it fits their agenda .

actually, it doesnt work both ways because your snarky imitation isnt supported by facts and numbers. Consoles are generally the biggest source of income in the industry, its been that way for a long time
